Reshipping
Why should I reship?
There are various reasons why you should reship your purchase through one of the services below:
High shipping rates: if shipping rates from the country you're buying from are expensive, this would kill your profit on certain items. Using a reshipping service, you can easily merge multiple packages into a single delivery, reducing your delivery costs by a lot.
Exclusive releases: many websites don't offer worldwide shipping, and there also are many releases that are exclusive to one or more regions. With a reshipping service, you can buy off these releases and reship the goods to your country.
High customs: purchases from US don't include VAT, which will be charged to you when the product arrives to your country. Reshipping your products, you can declare a lower value for the product, lowering customs cost or even totally avoiding them.
How does reshipping work?
Create an account on a reshipping service (depending on where you buy)
They will provide you a foreign address
Buy the product inserting the reshipping address in the shipping field (use your real billing address in the billing field in order to avoid card declined error)
The product will be delivered to your reshipping address
Once received your shipment, they will alert you by email or on the site
Reship the package to your home with the best formula and carrier according to your preferences
You will receive the package directly from the reshipper
General Tips
You should always look for a reshipper that allows you to consolidate your packages into a single one, if they offer this service for an additional cost you should consider paying it. When you're filling the custom declaration, declare a very low purchase cost for the item if you want to avoid customs (e.g. 2$ per pair). Please note this will affect your package insurance though.
Custom Duties
Because of some purchases are subjected to custom duties depending from where you buy and receive, you may be charged with additional fees depending on the value decleared. The shipping costs vary on the carrier and shipping time chosen.
